Rose Cottage -- Baldersby-St-James
I live in the USA -- Florida to be precise.
My birth certificate says I was born in Baldersby-St-James in Rose Cottage on October 30, 1950. I hope to travel to the UK next year, and hope to find a record of my birth in the local [Anglican] church, and also see my birth place if it still exists.
Somewhere in my photos, I have a picture of my mother holding me outside Rose Cottage. I will post the picture when I locate it. I am hoping that someone can help me with the physical address of this location.
Evacuee
I lived in Baldersby St James at the begining of the war. I was with my grandfather and we lived in the house nearest to the schoolteacher's. My grandfather, Mr Hodgson, was caretaker for the school and the church, he used to work the bellows for the organ on Sundays. I remember that I was given a small bucket when I arrived in Baldersby so that I could go to the well and help to bring water to the house. I went to the school for at least a year and really enjoyed myself. One vivid memory is learning to polish shoes at Mrs Potter's (?) farm. After a year or more, I returned to my home in Stockton-on-Tees and Granddad moved to Harrowgate. I have been back just a few times but as I now live in France it is not very often, unfortunately.
Lawrence Tait Williams- A Resident of Kirby
I come from Poland. I met L.T. Williams (Uncle Bill for me) when he was visiting Poland some years earlier. To be honest, he made me learn English, he invited me and my brother to Kirby then his son David and his wife Elizabeth invited me to Maidenhead. It all seemed like a fairy tale as Poland was a diiferent country then. Now it`s slowly reaching the state your country was in when I arrived here. Uncle Bill was and still is my hero, who showed me the world and taught me not only language but values. I owe so much to him and his family. I miss Kirby- such a picturesque and typically English place. Now I`m an English teacher myself and I pass these values to my students. Thanks Uncle Bill!
69 Years of Being A Part of Rainton
69 years ago I remember my father going to war. Many tears. He was in the RAF and was sent to Topcliffe and Dalton. He was occasionally based at then Skelfield School. He made a lot of friends in Rainton. They we're willing to open their homes to my mom and I for holidays. 69 years on, my family and I are still coming up to Rainton, having a caravan at The Nursery Garden Holiday Park just a mile from Rainton. It is still a beautiful village, part of my life.
